Record breaking reality show races to third series
The Amazing Race Asia
Following the highly successful first and second series of The Amazing Race Asia, activeTV is producing a third series for screening on AXN Asia in the final quarter of 2008 and into 2009.
activeTV produced the first ever non-US version of the Emmy Award winning series in 2006 for Sony Pictures Entertainment owned television network AXN. When shown in November 2006, The Amazing Race Asia broke all ratings records, even out-rating free to air networks.
The second series proved to be even bigger with even higher ratings, breaking all previous records held even by free-to-air channels.
The race is a logistical and creative tour de force with production teams in 10 countries, no less than 65 people and over a tonne of equipment being airlifted, on average, every second day. Over 25 cameras are used on the production.
The series is executive produced by Michael McKay; series producers are Serena Lau and Ariel White. Production Manager is Suzanne Radbourne. Post production is done at activeTV's Melbourne facility.
